It depends on the type of improvement and local market:
High-return projects: kitchen/bath remodels, energy upgrades (windows, insulation, HPWH), and curb appeal enhancements.
Low-return projects: overly personal renovations or luxury upgrades that exceed neighborhood norms.
Rule of thumb: focus on updates that improve functionality, efficiency, or appearance without overbuilding for your area.
Smart upgrades that buyers want usually increase value, but fancy or specific updates might not be worth it.

Home improvements can increase your home’s value, but it depends on the type. High-ROI projects like kitchen remodels, bathroom upgrades, or energy-efficient additions (e.g., solar panels) typically boost value by 50-80% of costs. Cosmetic fixes or niche upgrades (e.g., pools) may yield lower returns. Local market trends and improvement quality also matter
